Understanding the Equerry’s Role in a Royal Incident

In today’s fast-paced world of news and social media, it’s common for people to quickly make judgments without knowing the whole story. Let’s talk about what happened during a royal ceremony on September 10th, 2022, involving His Majesty Charles III. He asked his personal assistant (known as the Equerry, and is currently Lieutenant Colonel Johnny Thompson) to clear his desk, and this raised some eyebrows because some thought it showed arrogance on his part. But there’s more to this than meets the eye.

If we take a closer look at the video, we see that just a few minutes earlier, His Majesty accidentally knocked over some inkwells on the desk. To avoid any more accidents, it’s quite reasonable to think that he wanted those inkwells removed entirely. Unfortunately, his good intentions were misunderstood, and people saw his hand gestures as arrogance.

This incident teaches us a valuable lesson about how people often rush to judgment. In our age of viral videos and quick opinions, it’s crucial to pause, consider all the facts, and avoid making snap judgments. His Majesty Charles III, like anyone else, deserves a fair evaluation of his actions, rather than a rushed judgment based on incomplete information.

So, let us keep in mind, before jumping to conclusions, that we should strive to understand the whole story and give everyone a fair chance.
